Pompe Disease and Normal Whole-Body Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Pompe disease (PD) or glycogen storage disease type II, is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a defi ciency in the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase. Several phenotypes have been described, ranging from rapidly progressive infantile forms to slowly progressive late-onset forms. Recent studies have shown that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), based principally on signal inten...

بررسی شدت نسبی سیگنال تصاویر Magnetic Resonance در بافت رترودیسکال و عضله پتریگوئید خارجی و رابطه آن با یافته‌های Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Background and Aims: Disc displacement is the most common temporomandibular joint disorder and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard in its diagnosis. This disorder can lead to changes in signal intensity of magnetic resonance (MR). The purpose of this study was evaluation of correlation between relative signal intensity of MR images of retrodiscal tissue, superior and inferior ...

Emerging Role of Muscle Imaging in Diagnosis and Evaluation of Pompe Disease Patients.

The adult form of type II glycogenosis (GSDII) is a slowly progressive disease, with a few notable exceptions of patients who remain remarkably stable for decades and others who quite suddenly start to decline very quickly. A number of GSDII patients with nontypical presentation are misdiagnosed or diagnosed late. Whole-body muscle NMR imaging has proven useful in identifying as yet unrecognise...

Diagnosis of Meningitis Caused by Pathogenic Microorganisms Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Systematic Review

Introduction: Bacterial meningitis is an acute infectious inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain. Its early diagnosis is vital because of its high morbidity and mortality. It is mostly diagnosed by a gold standard diagnostic tool i.e. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) analysis. However, it is sometimes difficult and or impossible to do this procedure and an alternative diagnostic t...
